2) Brandon Fellows rearrested for violating the terms of his release. Fellows has a history of harassing people.   Fellows did not report to his probation officer; instead he found the phone number of her mother and called her…    https://t.co/I4th2Tejz7?amp=1   

3) This Feckless F’er, Fellows, has a huge problem…  “Was a "proud Capitol Rioter" on 1/6; Came back home and stole $700;  Arrested for insurrection; Released on bond; (house arrest) House arrest lifted (w/curfew); Violated curfew twice; Lied to court about those violations;  Agreed to surrender himself to State Police;  Did not surrender himself; Blew off State Police when they called; Finally surrendered six weeks later; Failed to report incident to federal court Judge; puts him back under house arrest;  Violates a protective order;  Does not show up for mental evaluation; Gives fake phone number to court;  Harasses mother of his probation officer.”  He now has to go back to DC but will the judge again coddle him???  https://twitter.com/seditiontrack/status/1405204432648912902

4) To his pretrial officer, he talked about his dick, and said he had no respect for a female “blondie.”. From Fellows' email: "None of her fucking business. I know she's just trying to do her job but so were the Nazis.  I just say fuck off. ... This is how you radicalize people. Maybe go after some BLM or Antifa rioters rather than people who put feet on a table."  https://twitter.com/emptywheel/status/1415323212074864644

5) GOOD NEWS! Judge Trevor McFadden has had enough… ’Brandon Fellows has shown “sustained contempt for the government.” Pretrial release is revoked. He’ll be locked up. “I can no longer give the defendant the benefit of the doubt,” he said. “I’ve tried, but we are where we are.”  https://twitter.com/ZoeTillman/status/1415697559377563649     “You admitted to probably obstruction of justice in that, and you admitted to considering obstruction of justice in trying to get me disqualified,” U.S. District Judge Trevor McFadden, “And only Ms. Halverson’s very wise advice to you kept you from being in much more significant trouble than you were already in.” https://www.law.com/nationallawjournal/2021/10/12/a-self-represented-jan-6-defendant-took-the-stand-the-judge-said-he-probably-admitted-to-a-crime/

6) Fellows admitted that he had guns in his hotel room or hidden… on January 6. 

During his hearing, Fellows now states he wants to represent himself…  and proceeds to insult Biden… He forgot to tell his lawyer that.  Judge McFadden is giving Fellows and his attorney two weeks to discuss this before he considers his motion to represent himself.  https://twitter.com/JordanOnRecord/status/1435256973298110467

7)  "Have you ever studied law?" Judge McFadden asks. "No -- well, the past three or four weeks," Fellows replies.  Fellows told he will have to mail all motions from jail. Asks if there's a more convenient way. Judge McFadden says doesn't think so: "This is one of the many hardships that I imagine you will find in representing yourself."  https://twitter.com/rachelweinerwp/status/1441110137507180545

8)  Fellows files a diatribe of 32 pages, telling the judge how to  interpret the Constitution, says he is like MLK imprisoned… and rewrites history…  It is torture reading. https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.dcd.227150/gov.uscourts.dcd.227150.78.1.pdf

9) During a bond hearing:  judge McFadden to Fellows,“You’ve admitted to obstruction of justice in that case, and you’ve admitted to what was probably obstruction in this case in trying to have me disqualified, and only Ms. Halverson’s advice stopped you from doing so. You’ve engaged in a pattern of behaviors that shows contempt for the criminal justice system, and I just have no confidence that you will follow my orders if I release you.”  McFadden then denied Fellows’ request to reopen his detention status and ordered him back into the custody of the D.C. Jail.  https://www.wusa9.com/article/news/national/capitol-riots/capitol-rioter-brandon-fellows-admits-to-two-new-felonies-while-representing-himself-in-bond-hearing-judge-trevor-mcfadden/65-a40af9c2-9809-4adb-aaec-7e36ad12b308

10)  Just how bad is this person to be constantly spanked by the worst tRUMPy judge?  Here is fellows bragging about  5 more months and contempt of court on the 2nd day of jury deliberation for his trial .   Ashli Babbit’s mom calls him a badass.   He told the judge if he was being charged with contempt, it was in a modern day Nazi court…  What a jackass.

11)  The jurors worried that he knows their names and addresses… 

12) Capitol riot defendant Brandon Fellows compares himself to Jesus during a hearing — and describes wrapping his phone in foil: https://www.rawstory.com/brandon-fellows-tin-foil-phone/

13) Brandon Fellows called incarceration “awesome and very fun,” but wanted to push back his sentencing until the Supreme Court rules on his obstruction charge. Fellows told jurors that he was on the autism spectrum and was diagnosed with Asperger’s syndrome and ADHD.

When the jury foreperson announced the verdict at his trial, Fellows interrupted her, yelling, "This is how you radicalize people!" according to a court transcript. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/justice-department/jan-6-rioter-may-seeking-delay-sentencing-likes-locked-prosecutors-say-rcna136839
